Viktor Hovland takes no days off after Masters, opens with 64 at RBC Heritage

Another Thursday, another low round from Viktor Hovland.

Last week, Hovland opened in 7-under 65 to co-lead the Masters after Day 1, and he went seven-deep again this week to begin the RBC Heritage.

The Norwegian’s bogey-free 64 came courtesy of seven birdies, only one of which came on a par 5 at the par-71 layout.

“Hit some really nice shots starting the day but didn't make the putts,” Hovland said. “It was a little frustrating, but stayed patient and just kept on hitting great shots. Then the putter started heating up, and it felt very stress-free from there on in.
